Talking Is for Us : Emotional Literacy for Key Stage 2 Children

Talking is for Us is the sequel to Talking is for Kids (Key Stage 1). The book uses story and activity sheets to cover six key concepts of emotional literacy:

" confidence building

" social development

" teaching how to learn

" expressing emotion

" environmental awareness

" moving towards independence.

All six of these are also linked to effect (emotion), behaviour (action) and cognition (thinking). The programme is flexible and can be modified to suit the needs of the group. Formats are provided to assess and record the pupils progress.

Developing emotional literacy can facilitate not only childrens' mental health, but also their physical wellbeing, since the two are inextricably linked. This book helps make that an attainable goal.
